Narrative:
Was landing at ZZZ having tracked in (gear down) on the ILS (runway 33). On turning final (runway 15) noted an aircraft, that had made no radio xmissions, suddenly in front of me. Elected to plan for possible go around with flaps down, gear up. Over the runway the other aircraft was still on the runway. In attempting go around I encountered some turbulence (or something) and was unable to cope. Result was gear-up landing and some aircraft damage. No injuries.
